Re-treatment: replacement of attachment system (short term) · Edentulous adults receiving mandibular implant overdentures (opposing conventional complete maxillary dentures)
It is very uncertain whether ball (stud) attachment system changes re-treatment: replacement of attachment system (short term) compared with bar attachment system (very low certainty).
